overwrought theatricality--have ironically become

the band's music and fame. It even includes some
solo work by Brian May and Freddie Mercury, whose
duet on "Barcelona" with diva Montserrat Caballé
transcends boundaries of both time and genre. A

also included. --Jerry McCulley

They need no introduction
Review of Platinum Collection, The (Greatest Hits Vol.1-3) - Queen by Jaynestep

Advantages: Rip-roaring, amazing, memorable music
Disadvantages: NONE

...The album comes in a Platinum box big enough to hold the three CD's inside. Queens symbol is printed on the front in black and it looks quite classy. It's a basic cardboard box covering the plastic CD's inside but it's simplicity just shows that you don't need the hype to sell classic music. When you pull out the CD box it is basically a double CD carrier again with the same simple platinum colouring. There is a picture of each original album cover ...
...generation. You can buy the platinum collection from play.com for only £12.99 or most music stores at about £19.99. To me, either price is a bargain as you are getting three great albums packed with great songs. You can visit Queen's website at www.Queenonline.com which gives you information about their history, albums, tours and the 'we will rock you' musical. So come on guys, don't let me down, add this to your collection. Thanks for reading ... Read review

Queen - Greatest Hits Platinum Collection
Review of Platinum Collection, The (Greatest Hits Vol.1-3) - Queen by Alan-RMFB

Advantages: Contains 51 Queen Songs
Disadvantages: I can't see any disadvantages with this

I bought this because I liked a couple of Queen songs. But after I listened to it I quickly realised that this was the best band ever! I find that when you buy a compliation ofsongs or a Greatest hits album you still skip songs, you won't in with this. The first CD is great and contains many great songs, the second CD is great and contains some more great tracks, the third CD is contains collobrations with Queen including, Elton John, David Bowie, ...
...by Brian May and the great Freddie Mercury, the best song on this CD is "No-one But You". I would reccomend this CD to anyone who is a fan of Queen, a fan of rock music or else a fan of fantastic music. Songs include DISC 1: GREATEST HITS I: 1. Bohemian Rhapsody 2. Another One Bites The Dust 3. Killer Queen 4. Fat Bottomed Girls 5. Bicycle Race 6. You're My Best Friend 7. Don't Stop Me Now 8. Save Me 9. Crazy Little Thing Called Love 10. Somebody ...

Queenian Rhapsody?
Review of Platinum Collection, The (Greatest Hits Vol.1-3) - Queen by datawise

Advantages: Best of Breed Rock
Disadvantages: How can you work when you can sing along to Bohemian Rhapsody?

If you are of a certain age, where you can remember when Bohemian Rhapsody was number one for the first time, then this is for you. Perhaps you had some of these songs on vinyl, but here is all you need in one package! Buy it and put it in your car. If you kids have any taste they too will sing along to Rhapsody, We will rock you and the other great tracks on these CDs. If you are not old enough to remember this music from the first time around, ... Read review
